Mt. CB Guides Ridge Climb

Our technical peak options involve using ropes, harnesses, and helmets for safety on the more difficult climbing portions of the route.

Mt. Crested Butte offers an incredible introduction to mountaineering on the Guides Ridge route, and riding a ski lift to over 11,000 feet lets you skip the hiking and focus on the climbing, no experience necessary!

Full Day
Ride the Silver Queen lift to about 11,500’ (1 time lift ticket included). Ascend an 800’ ridge to the peak of Mount Crested Butte for epic views of the West Elk mountain range. Experience climbers can attempt the more difficult climbing of Sunset Ridge.

Guest to Guide Ratio: 2:1
